2. Uric acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uric_acid

   Uric acid is a heterocyclic compound of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen with the formula C 5 H 4 N 4 O 3. It forms ions and salts known as urates and acid urates, such as ammonium acid urate. Uric acid is a product of the metabolic breakdown of purine nucleotides, and it is a normal component of urine.

3. Hyperuricemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperuricemia

   Unless high blood levels of uric acid are determined in a clinical laboratory, hyperuricemia may not cause noticeable symptoms in most people. [5] Development of gout – which is a painful, short-term disorder – is the most common consequence of hyperuricemia, which causes deposition of uric acid crystals usually in joints of the extremities, but may also induce formation of kidney stones ...

4. Urinalysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinalysis

   The interpretation of urinalysis takes into account the results of physical, chemical and microscopic examination and the person's overall condition. Urine test results should always be interpreted using the reference range provided by the laboratory that performed the test, or using information provided by the test strip/device manufacturer. [136]

5. Hypouricemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypouricemia

   Hypouricemia or hypouricaemia is a level of uric acid in blood serum that is below normal. In humans, the normal range of this blood component has a lower threshold set variously in the range of 2 mg/dL to 4 mg/dL, while the upper threshold is 530 μmol/L (6 mg/dL) for women and 619 μmol/L (7 mg/dL) for men. [1]

6. Tumor lysis syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumor_lysis_syndrome

   [citation needed] The urinalysis may show uric acid crystals or amorphous urates. [citation needed] The hypersecretion of uric acid can be detected with a high urine uric acid - creatinine ratio > 1.0, compared to a value of 0.6–0.7 for most other causes of acute kidney failure. [citation needed]

7. Hyperuricosuria - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperuricosuria

   Hyperuricosuria is a medical term referring to the presence of excessive amounts of uric acid in the urine. For men this is at a rate greater than 800 mg/day, and for women, 750 mg/day. [1] Notable direct causes of hyperuricosuria are dissolution of uric acid crystals in the kidneys or urinary bladder, and hyperuricemia.
